PyAutoGUI gives you the option to send keyboard and mouse clicks and do screenshots, not much more. Pywinauto tries to let you interact with the element of a windows application, so also works, if the program is not in the foreground. I've played with Pywinauto and am not entirely happy. If you want to automate a complicated GUI program, one that contantly opens and closes windows and message boxes, their approach of locating the part of the program that you want to react to can drive you mad. I had to write a lot of try/catch code to get it to work at all. PyWinGUI alas isn't better for this usecase, but at least very easy to use. On windows 10 you also have the option of getting autohotkey (not python, but its own language) which does a much better job at automating, but has horrible syntax and no data structures...

fortunately you can combine the two as above pyautogui allows us to click a button by image (very narrow tolerances) pywinauto press works better than pyautogui press (think the pyautogui one is mapped to usa keyboards -so if you are in america you may see no difference). luckily it is easy to combine them. i would respectfully advise against autoit as why learn a new language when you can do everything you need to within python?

64-bit app won’t work in 32-bit OS. Just use function pywinauto.sysinfo.is64bit() or something like that to check OS architecture. ... sorry to ask you again, you are saying that I should install python-2.17.14.amd64, pywin32-214.win-amd64-py2.7 and pywinauto-0.6.4?
